      I don't know much about slin but I do know that DiamondBling is using it right now and would share his experiences with you. Drop him a pm about this thread I'm sure he'll have some advice along with a couple of members here.

      I'm also curious as to what everyone puts in their post-injection shakes. Mine is just a whey protein drink with added creatine.

      Also what do you guys keep with you as emergency food incase of hypoglycemia?

      ok, first time users should prolly use humalog, much easier to control the peaks, humulin hits u very inconsistently. Start off at 4ius, work up an iu each workout the first week till u hit 8, then next week start at 10ius. Have a coke or some glucose tabs on hand in case u get symptoms of hypo (cold sweats, dizzines, confusion, shakiness) Even experinced users get a scare a time or two, ive ran numerous insulin cycles, and today was my first day back to work out in 3 days after the stomach flu. I figured a little slin should help me absorb the shake, because ive had mild diarhea all week. Well, i guess the diarehea really depleted me, because i was lying on my bed, sweating like a hooker in church on Sunday, trying to figure out why i was feeling hypo, i just drank 1/2 of an Extreme XXl shake, which half has over 100g of carbs, i can usually get by with 60-70g of carbs, but im bulking right now. I stumbled to the fridge, and took about 4 spoonfuls of strawberry jam, no cokes in the house (living a BBer lifestyle almost backfired) Then i lied down on the kitchen floor for about 5 minutes still sweating, and eventually the symptoms went away. Not trying to scare ya, but no way in hell would i have been able to drive my shaky, comfused sweating ass to the gas station for some sugar. I have cycled insulin on and off for almost a year, and this is the scaredest ive ever been, most hypo i have ever been. Moral of the story, even when u think u know what ur doing, there can always be a suprise with something like slin.

      First of all, Humalog!
      Only do it on the days you work out, after ur workout.
      Throw in Glutamine, 10grams
      Get as much protien you can into ur body in 4 hours.
      Have some pop in the fridge or a chocolate bar.
      Do this only for 4 weeks, maybe 5.

      I'm up to 10 iu's post work out. I started at 4. I'm takin a carbo force with about 50 grams of Pro. and Creat./Glu. I have no problems.

      Any questions??

      Unfortunately, Humilin R is all I can get.

      Where can I get some glucose tabs? Drug store? Would regular old sugar cubes do the trick instead?

      How does my post injection meal schedule look? ok?

      Glad to hear your ok bro, be safe!

      I had to drive 4 hours to the nearest city and go to 3 different pharmacy's..I actually asked if I could get Humalog, and the pharmacist told me its more dangerous and she would have to see my prescription, so I went with the R

      All the posts I read reccomended R for beginners, and so did the AR drug profile...would you advise against it? Do you think its too dangerous?

      Takin R is risky. It stays in ur system longer, and peaks more than once. Being a newbie, this isn't smart to start of with it. R is more unpredictable than Log. Log is active for about 4 hours and peaks once.
